10/28/2012 10:20:00 PMgood to see ya down there buddy! yea those people are crazy there, although most fish are flossed anyway, theres a difference between drifting and hoping for biters, and getting flossed fish now and again like you and me down lower on the wall, and those crazy guys up top sight snagging the poor fish swimming up, if it wasnt 5 minutes from my house id probably never go, but its fun to go and fight a few fish now and again!

10/29/2012 6:27:00 AMYeah man! The first two fish came from all the way down the wall! I know these fish were not flossed cuz they hit my jigs! It slowed so went back to drifting then I caught the to hens. One of my hens had a hook on her tail. And did you see the guy who was trying to fly fish with about an ounce of lead? He snagged one and almost got spooled. But it was fun to get yelled at multiple times. This is a very competitive "fishery", and is not a place for little kids to try and fish. Haha. I'll be there again next week, but with safety goggles lol.

10/29/2012 11:11:00 AMNice to put faces to the name - actually heard both of you talking yesterday. Frustrating "fishing" at the wall with all the snaggers, but no other place that has that many fish coming in at once! Have a friend who works for the hatchery and he talks very negatively about all the fish they find in the tank that are ripped open with their guts hanging out.
